    Why is there no video of Harden giving the death stare to McHale?

    This is nonsense. I am not worried about Harden. He is being defended like the first option on the team & is struggling to adjust. He will figure it out eventually & so will the rest of the team. basketball is a complex sport you can't just blame one person or player.

    sounds like a player pissed off at a loss. Good.

    If the word "potential" is in your reply, you might as well keep it to yourself.

    We've seen the potential he has and we've seen him take over games... In the playoffs. Difference is that we have no one else demanding double teams on a regular basis. He gets all of the defense's attention. Give him time, give the team time, and give morey time to get that next foundational piece.

    Uh, we traded for Harden based on his superstar "potential"... Any reasonable fan could piece together that it might take some time to go from 6th man of the year to can't miss nba superstar.

    Sure buddy. Whatever makes you feel better. It's his 4th year. You're pretty much what you're going to be by then. All you do is get better at what you do well and maybe add a couple of pieces to your game.

    P.S., Harden and Lin were signed to get fans excited and sell tickets, which seems like it's working. The Rockets are about making money now and don't care about championships.

    You are correct, the NBA is a business... and the objective to business is to make money. I agree that Jeremy Lin was brought here to give Les a piece of the China market, but Harden is a legitimate acquisition. If you think a 23 year old who has no history of injury cannot improve his game, then you are inconsolable. Check your expectations.. I never expected this years Rockets to be truly competitive, but at least we now have a foundation to build upon.

    Yeah and what Harden is at this point is a top 5 SG in the NBA and a leading scorer in the association.

    What a failure :rolleyes:

    Will he be after this month? Those stats are from the first 2 games. 1 being against the Pistons.

    For $5 million this year, Lin is actually a bargain, considering his stats (he is getting back his scoring) and his importance to this team's overall cohesion.

    This Lin and Harden bashing is getting out of hand. It is not their fault that the default play of McFail is Iso-Harden and Lin-baseline 3.
